We'd like to say a huge thank you to Storebox Self Storage in Retford who are kindly loaning us storage space so we can continue to accept donations of goods and furniture. Adam and the hard working team will be able to use this space to sort and store items for future use, whether that’s donating items directly to families in need or selling them to raise funds for BFB.

🟩 We need donations of blankets! 🟩 As part of the additional support BFB offer we occasionally donate blankets, particularly to individuals sleeping rough. Unfortunately we're running low. We are ideally looking for full size fleece blankets, they can be used as long as they are clean and in good condition. If you are able to support us with this, please email us at [email protected] Thank you!
